Shooting incidents in the news.

Buc-ee's in Baytown, Brookshire, and Luling. Cleanest bathrooms and great coffee.

I always stop at the Baytown one when heading that way. It's just the right distance from home for my bladder. And the gas prices are usually good.

Looks like the next time I head west on I-10 I'll find somewhere before or after San Antonio to fill up...

I 10 does a big zigzag through San Antonio with the middle portion downtown being a combination of I 10 and I 35.
The section of I 10 west of downtown is not too bad. The section of I 10 east of downtown is probably not somewhere you want to stop for gas.

Come on, it’s been like three years since the last time we had someone with a grenade here .....

Not a shooting incident, but, hey, self-defense is self defense.

Had the suspect gone into the house while the former female roommate was there, who the suspect was apparently stalking, she probably would have been better off with something more "equalizing" than a battle axe.

Ain’t that a cunning hat?

Man walks down the street in a hat like that, people know he’s not afraid of anything.

Lawyer dies after being shot by gun presented as evidence in court


How many layers of FAIL does it take for a weapon to make it all the way to trial without being cleared?

Freak accidents like this are one of the reasons I believe everyone (especially US residents) should know how to safely handle firearms. Guns exist. They're all around us.
